"You changed my life, I became a better person because of you, you loved me unconditionally and you inspired me every day. Ryan your time with us was incredible.

The tragedy

Devon and Cornwall Police said: “Police were notified on Saturday, August 11, to reports of a concern of welfare of a man in his 20s who was believed to have been involved in an incident at Tehidy Country Park.

“Reports came in that a man had received serious head injuries after a tree had fallen where the man had been staying in a tent and he was taken to Derriford Hospital.

“The man later died as a result of injuries.

“This is not being treated as a suspicious incident and a file will be prepared for the coroner.”

Local woman Natalie Jupp said she was passing at around 1am.

She said: "It was a freak accident. One of the trees had catapulted out of the ground.

"We were driving past the scene when we were flagged down by a young boy, around 10-years-old, with no shoes on. It was pitch black.

“I have no idea how long he had been there or how long he would’ve waited if we didn’t drive past.

“My 19-year-old son darted out and found a huge tree had crushed a man. He looked dead. It must’ve been 20ft.”

Natalie, who has been trained in CPR, was trying to get to the casualty while her son attempted to lift off the huge tree from his chest.
